Bandy says;

>>>often inadequate -- hence the lineups for women's rooms at theatres,
>>>concert halls, stadiums and so on).

I like the fact that Bandy doesn't say how many restrooms or whatever there
are, just that there aren't enough for women.  As a semi-interesting sidelight
to this; the Kingdome in Seattle is your typical multi-use public stadium.
I'm sure more men go there than women and yet there are *more* women's
restrooms than men's.  Still not enough but at least they thought of it.
